The air velocity in the duct of a heating system is to be measured by a Pitot-static probe inserted into the duct parallel to th
e flow. The differential height between the water columns connected to the two outlets of the probe is 0.126 m.Take the density of water to be 1000 kg/m3. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa-m3/kg-K.The air temperature and pressure in the duct are 352 K and 98 kPa, respectively.

Question is incomplete
The air velocity in the duct of a heating system is to be measured by a Pitot-static probe inserted into the duct parallel to the flow. If the differential height between the water columns connected to the two outlets of the probe is 0.126m, determine (a) the flow velocity and (b) the pressure rise at the tip of the probe. The air temperature and pressure in the duct are 352k and 98 kPa, respectively

Answer:
The head loss in Psi is 0.390625 psi.
Explanation:
Fluid looses energy in the form of head loss. Fluid looses energy in the form of head loss when passes through the valve as well.
Given:
Factor cv is 48.
Flow rate of water is 30 GPM.
GPM means gallon per minute.
Calculation:
Step1
Expression for head loss for the water is given as follows:
Here, cv is valve coefficient, Q is flow rate in GPM and h is head loss is psi.
Step2
Substitute 48 for cv and 30 for Q in above equation as follows:
h = 0.390625 psi.
Thus, the head loss in Psi is 0.390625 psi.
Answer:
The corresponding absolute pressure of the boiler is 24.696 pounds per square inch.
Explanation:
From Fluid Mechanics, we remember that absolute pressure (), measured in pounds per square inch, is the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the working pressure (gauge pressure). That is:
(1)
Where:
- Atmospheric pressure, measured in pounds per square inch.
- Working pressured of the boiler (gauge pressure), measured in pounds per square inch.
If we suppose that and
, then the absolute pressure is:
The corresponding absolute pressure of the boiler is 24.696 pounds per square inch.
Answer:
F=1.47 KN
Explanation:
Given that
Diameter of plate = 25 cm
Height of pool h = 3 m
We know that force can be given as
F= P x A
P=ρ x g x h
Now by putting the values
P=1000 x 10 x 3
P= 30 KPa
F= 30 x 0.049 KN
F=1.47 KN
So the force on the plate will be 1.47 KN.
